Chapter 109: Her Thoughts Are Unhealthy
The seafood was served one after another and all the dishes were ready.
Fu Qi first picked up a piece of the golden fish he ordered. It was fried in oil. There were no bones in his mouth and the meat was tender and delicious. It looked good and tasted good.
Lin Jiaojiao had finished eating the oysters a long time ago. She ate a little too much and felt a little full. After peeling a few shrimps and eating them, she found that the people opposite had only touched the fish meat, and left the other shrimps, snails, etc.
She had no choice but to accept her fate and start peeling shrimps. After all, she was now worried about her mother's life.
She peeled a few shrimps and picked some snail meat and put them in a small bowl. "Fu Qi, I peeled some shrimps and snail meat for you. Try it and see if you like it."
"Okay, thank you Sister Jiaojiao."
He took the small bowl and placed it in front of him, looking at the shelled meat in the bowl with joy. He rarely saw his mother prepare dishes for his father at home, she was really nice.
He picked up a piece of shrimp and put it in his mouth. It was so fresh and sweet. "Sister Jiaojiao, this shrimp is so delicious. You don't have to peel it for me. This is enough. You can eat it yourself."
"Okay, if you want more, tell me."
After this seafood meal, both of them had full stomachs. Fu Qi was still a little shy. This was the first time he ate so much. He was usually restricted when eating at home. This was the first time he ate to his heart's content.
Afterwards, the two of them strolled along the way, helping to digest the food. Lin Jiaojiao was already very full, and after Fu Qi finished eating, she felt it would be a pity not to eat the rest, so she just finished it all.
Lin Jiaojiao, Lin Jiaojiao, you were not like this before. If she couldn’t finish it, she would just throw it away. If she wanted to eat more, she would just order new servings. It’s only been a short time.
It is true that the environment nourishes people.
When they arrived at a glass shop, they couldn't move their feet. There were various glass crafts inside, and her favorite was the glass lamps. There were small portable glass jar lamps and large glass bead lanterns. These would definitely be beautiful if hung on the eaves or corridor.
The world outside is different from what she imagined. In her imagination, the extra-story shouldn't be full of natives, bartering in primitive tribes...
Maybe they hadn’t traveled too far, so she looked again…
"Sister Jiaojiao, this glass bead lantern is so beautiful."
Lin Jiaojiao pointed at it and asked, "Shopkeeper, how much is this?"
"Sir, you have good taste. This is the latest product from the Kingdom of Jinwu. It just arrived yesterday. If you want silver, you need 1,500 taels of silver. If you want silk cloth, you need 30 rolls."
Um…well she can’t afford any of them.
Fu Qi also noticed her embarrassment and pulled her hand, "Sister Jiaojiao, forget it, we are going to Jinwu Kingdom anyway."
In the end, the two of them exchanged a piece of cloth for a small glass lamp, a very ordinary one with no bright colors, but this way they could light a lamp in their room.
Oil lamps or candles were not allowed, mainly because they had no covers and there was a fear of fire if they were accidentally knocked over. However, glass lamps were allowed, and first-class cabins were equipped with these lamps.
Fu Qi couldn't let go of the lamp and kept looking at it, wanting to get back to the boat as soon as possible.
"Sister Jiaojiao, now we have lights, can we buy some toys to play with on the boat?"
"Gadget?"
"Yes, buy some pearl shells and make pearl flowers or necklaces. Oh, and I can also make a pearl belt for Sister Jiaojiao. It will look great on her."
Well, she is mentally unhealthy and she is guilty.
Then Lin Jiaojiao walked around and bought a basket full of food because the next stop would take another seven days.
Roadside noodle stall.
Zhang Sha and Wang Xiao were eating seafood noodles. After they had moved the cargo boxes onto the boat, they could finally get off the boat and have a hot bowl of food.
Wang Xiao was about to ask the boss for another bowl when he saw two people standing in front of a stall not far away buying things.
"Sister, it's those two people."
Zhang Sha took a sip of soup and looked in the direction her mother was looking. When she saw the man leaning against the woman next to her, a hint of obscurity flashed in her eyes.
"That's perfect. It hit us right in the face. Now that we're down, forget about getting back up."
Wang Xiao didn't get a response. He looked at the woman sitting next to him drinking soup and asked in a low voice: "Sister, will you do it?"
Zhang Sha finished her soup, took out some silver from her pocket, put it on the table, stood up and stretched.
"Let's go."
...
Lin Jiaojiao took Fu Qiu to buy a set of Go. When he learned that she didn't know how to play Go, he said he would teach her.
She refused. Now that there was light, of course she would teach him how to play Gobang. As for Go, with her IQ, she might not be able to play it even if she went to Zhouzhou.
They also bought a nine-ring puzzle. Fu Qi said he knew how to solve it when he was a child, but she couldn't. After playing with it for a while, she almost got angry. This made her look so stupid.
She thought that life on the boat would be very boring, but at least she could use the mall to make a living if she lived alone. But suddenly there was one more person, and she couldn't use the mall, nor could she eat the snacks in her backpack.
If she had known earlier, she would have customized a set of poker cards and mahjong, or even Werewolf.
The two of them walked back together until the bamboo baskets behind them could no longer hold anything. It was already early in the morning, and there were still so many people on the street. From time to time, there were barefoot children wearing vests and skirts running by, playing.
Although she was a child, Fu Qi still didn't dare to look. Instead, she envied their clothes. She was so hot that her back was wet.
The two returned to the inn and asked the waiter to fetch some water. After they got into the room, she couldn't wait to go to the toilet. She had a stomachache after eating so much seafood at once, and it was impossible for her to use the chamber pot in a room with other people.
After saying something to Fu Qi, she ran downstairs, asked the waiter where the toilet was, and headed straight for the destination.
Fu Qi was checking whether the clothes he had hung out to dry were dry when he heard a knock on the door. He walked over, opened the door a crack, and saw someone carrying a bucket, so he let her in.
But when he saw someone else walking in behind her, he felt something was wrong and wanted to run out before the door was closed, but was hugged by the woman behind him.
"Want to run?"
He remembered this voice! It was the gangster from that night!
"save!"
Before he could even shout out, the woman covered his mouth with her hands and veil. He struggled desperately but it was all in vain for her.
"Want to scream? You'd better save your energy for screaming later."
Zhang Sha hugged the person and threw him on the bed. "If you want to call for help, your lover will come in and get stabbed to death."
After she finished speaking, she leaned over and tore off the curtain on his head. Looking at the stunning appearance of the man under her, her eyes slightly red, she felt so touching that her heart was itching.
But she did not take the next step. Instead, she got up and sat on the edge of the bed, playing with the sharp knife in her hand.
"Sister, that woman is coming up."
Wang Xiao stood behind the door with a knife in his hand, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, and then there was a knock on the door.
"Fu Qi is me."
Lin Jiaojiao knocked on the door, waiting for Fu Qi to open it for her. After a while, the door opened a crack. Just as she was about to push it open and step into the room, she heard his anxious shouting.
"Sister Jiaojiao, run!"
